Sour grapes of alleged majorities in world opinion polls affect my political positions no more than nugatory prestidigitations of Noam Chomsky. In over three decades of living in the United States, I have had no misgivings about any of her wars, with the twin exceptions of the Iranian fuckup and the Balkan walkover. In the former instance, adverse consequences crystallized in overcompensation for domestic loss of self-respect, while the latter campaign even now emboldens your Motherland in her claims to South Ossetian ius ad bellum. I am gladly on board with all our remaining spread of war and mayhem. May you rest as content with your nation’s incessant Caucasian incursions.
